If There Had Been No Calvary Lyrics

Flowers couldn’t lift their heads on hills of grass so green
And the sun would never shine to cause the river’s silver sheen
The bird would have no song to sing from high up in the tree
If there had been no Calvary!

Chorus:
But, what a difference Calvary made
Lost forever but now we all can be saved
Peace has come and life is new
But if there had been no Calvary, there would be no hope for me and you!

A baby starts to cry at birth but its tears would never end
And Webster couldn’t find the definition of a “friend”
And wasted blood would flood the streets of sin’s society
If there had been no Calvary!

Chorus

What a difference Sweet Calvary made
Cause I was lost forever oh, but now we all can be saved
Peace has come (peace has come) and life is new
But if there had been no Calvary, there would be no hope for me and you!
